like a tiny little pinch, not bad at all. the drain, WHOLE different story. not "pain", but a really bizare, super uncomfortable sensation.

i want to share an issue i had with shredded cheese. the additives they put into shredded cheese to keep it shredded( potato starch, corn starch anti caking, anti mold etc.) have given me a real run...to the bathroom! I can eat CHEESE, but these additives...ARG! "milk, salt,and enzymes", THAT is cheese. i thought i had food poisoning for two weeks.

breakfast liquid egg whites(6 T.)a lo fat string cheese sliced into it, 1/4 c.veggies as space allows. 1/2 c cottage cheese of plain greek yogurt(lo fat) mid morning. i poach chicken breast in lo salt broth and shred like pulled pork. make a big batch and freeze in several days worth units. 2 oz. chicken and 1/4 c. veggies for lunch and dinner. 2 oz. chicken and maybe some salsa for snack. my liquids, 8 oz. each skim milk and lo salt V-8. and as much water as you can stand. i'm 3 months post op today and usually drink 80-96 oz. total each day. condiments are my friend, salsa, hot sauce, curry, whole grain mustard, low or no calorie flavorful add ins to keep menu interesting. oh and when i am tired of chicken i do same thing with salmon fillets or canned tuna. VERY rarely do i add a 1/2 scoop of protein to my milk. hope this helps.

i almost threw up pumping gas several days post op. at my 1 week follow up i asked the doc what's up. it is a verified syndrome that randomly affects people that have under gone ANESTESIA(sp?) it rewires your brain's olfactory center. one of the most common trigger items is chocolate. it may go away, it may not. this is a totally random event and NOT predictable. NOW ISN'T THAT FANCY!
